A woman, who stepped out of her car during a safari at an animal park in Beijing, was dragged away by a tiger.

A CCTV footage, which recorded the gruesome incident, has gone viral. There are multiple accounts of the event, with some reports claiming the woman was killed, while others stating she escaped.

The NYT gives a clear picture of the incident that occurred at Badaling Wildlife World in Yanqing County government last Saturday.

During the safari, the woman got down the car and crossed over to get in from the other door. It was when the CCTV caught a Siberian Tiger dragging her away.

Her husband and mother got down the car and chased after the tiger to try to save her. The mother got killed while rescuing her daughter, while the woman herself survived through with serious injuries.

The husband escaped without serious injuries and their child, which stayed put in the car, was also safe.

A few media reports said the couple had a fight, which prompted the woman to switch sides. A report in Beijing Times refutes this account quoting a family friend, reports NYT.

The Badaling Wildlife World, which allows visitors to drive their own vehicles at a section, reportedly has poor safety record and seen many deaths of visitors.

A security guard who stepped out of a patrol vehicle had been similarly killed by a tiger in 2014.

The woman, Ramaben Muchhadiya, is neither, and worse has a criminal record for extortion and rioting, reports NDTV.

It quotes her saying as a Dalit mother, she felt for the men who ad been attacked by the cow vigilantes, and w nt to visit them. Rahul Gandhi visited at the same time, saw tears in her eyes and hugged her, she claims.

The NDTV report even accuses her of using a fake name to get a pass to enter the hospital fraudulently.

The viral story of Chennai phographer Vasanth Paul took a different turn on Tuesday with the police saying he was unable to trace the spot where the woman was attacked.

In his Facebook post on Friday, Vasanth Paul had stated that he had seen three thugs trying to rape a woman at Alandur. After he tried to intervene, one of them had tried to strangle him till an auto-rickshaw driver came and chased the thugs away.

The post and the photos of his injured neck had gone viral drawing widespread appreciation.

The police said on Tuesday they could trace neither the woman nor the auto driver.

The News Minute quoted Deputy Commissioner of Police, Kalyan, saying Vasanth Paul failed to both locate the spot and re-enact the incident.

Vasanth Paul reportedly said he was unable to lead police to the site as he was intoxicated, stated NDTVquoting Additional Commissioner, K Shankar.

Vasanth Paul told The News Minute that he was co-operating with the police, but had failed to identify the exact spot.

Irrfan Khan stuck to his guns and clarified that he had only called upon Muslims to grasp the true meaning of animal sacrifice (video below)

Bollywood actor, Irrfan Khan, who was in controversy recently over his remarks on Islam, had a full Times Now's News Hour show to debate the issue.

Leading the discussion was the nation's Oracle, Arnab Goswami.

There were mandatory clerics, bent on a literal interpretation of Islam, and the right-wingers like Mohandas Pai asking for rationality and ban on animal slaughter.

Irrfan Khan stuck to his guns and clarified that he had only called upon Muslims to grasp the true meaning of animal sacrifice and not opposed the ritual per se. He also pointed out that Indian Muslims in general were opposed to terrorism and working against it.

Hasan Dar, also a cricketer, had sent a video to the Indian Test captain, and the latter responded in kind in a a 29-second message.

Virat Kohli agrees that hard work and dedication are very important in life for success. "So keep working hard to improve your cricket, and don’t lose faith in yourself,” he says.

He also hopes to meet Hasan Dar and assures to send him a signed bat.

The clip was posted on the Aleem Dar Cricket Academy Facebook page, and has already received over 75,000 views.

The comments suggest that Virat Kohli's message has thrilled Pakistanis, who are gushing in his praise. Apart from his natural charm, do note that Virat Kohli ends his message with a Khuda Hafiz, God protect you, greeting.

Khuda Hafiz is a parting greeting usually exchanged between Muslims in South Asia though Khuda is God in Persian, not necessarily limited to referring to Allah.

By saying Khuda Hafiz, Virat Kohli gave his message a personal touch, reached out instinctively touching a chord in Pakistan.

Minister Nirmala Sitharaman stepped in to limit damage after an official Twitter handle of Startup India re-tweeted an offensive post for a purge of pro-Pakistan "presstitutes"..

@Startupindia had on Tuesday night re-tweeted a post that read: "Indian Army should be freed for 1 day to take care of these pro-Pak presstitutes. To make these pro-Pak doves silent for eternity. RT (retweet) if agree."

@Startupindia had on Tuesday night re-tweeted a post that read: "Indian Army should be freed for 1 day to take care of these pro-Pak presstitutes. To make these pro-Pak doves silent for eternity. RT (retweet) if agree."

The re-tweet followed Times Now's News Hour show in which Arnab Goswami had attacked allegedly pro-Pakistani journalists.

Startup India had re-tweeted another post, which had attacked Barkha Dutt though without naming her.

Many Modi ministers have had a testy relationship with media. The word 'presstitute' was coined by MoS V K Singh, and former HRD minister Smriti Irani was known for her frequent fracas with journalists.

After the Startup India re-tweets threatened to create a huge controversy, junior Commerce Minister Nirmala Sitharaman stepped in to control damage.

She posted eight tweets saying the account had been managed by an outside agency and was not authorised. She also said the employee had left job after the misdeed.

The Commerce ministry had earlier deleted the tweets and apologised describing them as unwarranted & irrelevant.

1/n- This is with reference to two unwarranted & irrelevant re-tweets done in the midnight by @startupindia handle ....... @nsitharaman
